Fig. 5From: miR-125b-5p inhibits cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in hepatocellular carcinoma via targeting TXNRD1TXNRD1 overexpression counteracts miR-125b-5p-mediated attenuation of HCC cell migration and invasion. a qRT-PCR- and b western blotting-based confirmation of miR-125b-5p and TXNRD1 overexpression. pENTER (empty plasmid) was used as a control to determine TXNRD1 overexpression (n = 3; one-way ANOVA and Dunnett’s multiple comparison test). c–h TXNRD1 overexpression abolished miR-125b-5p-mediated repression of c, d HCC cell proliferation according to EdU-incorporation assay (n = 3; one-way ANOVA and Dunnett’s multiple comparison test) and e–h migration and invasion in HCC cells (n = 3; one-way ANOVA and Dunnett’s multiple comparison test). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001Back to article page
